Actually, Dad was working for Von Braun Well.......that may beat my dad......but my Mom has 7 Nobel Prizes! <vvvvvbg> Seriously.... My dad worked test support in Building 32. It was where they had the chambers they used to simulate space. I'm sure your father is familiar with that building. Everybody everywhere sent stuff for testing there. Those chamber were shown in the movie: "Future World". BirdDog

Dad was working for Von Braun can't let it pass without raising a cap to one of the all-time masters... Gather round while I sing you of Wernher von Braun, A man whose allegiance Is ruled by expedience. Call him a Nazi, he won't even frown. "Ha, Nazi Schmazi," says Wernher von Braun. Don't say that he's hypocritical, Say rather that he's apolitical. "Once the rockets are up, who cares where they come down? That's not my department," says Wernher von Braun. Some have harsh words for this man of renown, But some think our attitude Should be one of gratitude, Like the widows and cripples in old London town Who owe their large pensions to Wernher von Braun. You too may be a big hero, Once you've learned to count backwards to zero. "In German oder English I know how to count down, Und I'm learning Chinese," says Wernher von Braun. wizard.com wiw.org ctb/A@poisoningpigeonsinthepark.com
